Christmas Songs Revised to Be More Inclusive

There is a school that revised the lyrics to Silver Bells to be less about Christmas and more inclusive to others celebrating the holidays. The word “Christmas” in the lyrics was replaced by “festive.”

This got me to thinking about the possibility of revising other Christmas songs as well to include other religions and social ideologies. So, I decided to tinker with the titles of these favorite all-time Christmas songs to include others besides Christians.

Here my top 12 list of revised Christmas songs:

1. Have a Holly Jolly Hanukkah
2. All I Want for Kwanzaa Is My Two Front Teeth
3. Grandma Got Run Over by a Hoser Moose
4. Have Yourself a Merry Little Festival
5. Here Comes Fat Man
6. O Holiday Tree
7. Rocking Around the Tetherball Pole
8. Donald Trump Is Coming to Town
9. Adolph the Red-Nosed Bartender
10. Little Bummer Boy
11. The Twelve Days of Winter Solstice
12. We Wish You a Merry Mistress

Of course, the holidays are a time to include everyone. However, sometimes political correctness goes too far. Whatever happened to letting traditions remaining traditions and moving on from there?

Anyway, I wish you a merry whatever and trust at least a few of you will be on Santa watch over the next day or two.
